Apologies if this belongs in the baseball forum, but this seems to be worth having the wider discussion -
What are your thoughts regarding the labor stalemate in MLB? Do you blame the players, the owners or both? Personally, I see both sides of the argument, but I side with the players. The owners have done well for years and have the chance to increase the value of their franchises significantly while not being willing to give a little in the short term. Most MLB players do not make 1M a year and have a limited earnings window so I get where asking the players to take more than a 50% cut in salary starts to become an issue.
I was looking forward to baseball 2020, particularly fantasy, but now I am in a place like - come get me if it actually happens and until then, who cares? Just wondering how others feel about MLB these days.
